A bright star on Hollywood Road

If you know me, I have an obsession with stars or anything that shines.Well this place just got my attention after shopping at Marks and Spencers.
The decor is nice and bright with a green and orange theme.

Looking at the menu, it was nice and defined yet concise because you have noodles, salads, drinks etc and dessert.

As I wanted to try everything, I decided to order a noodle, banh mi, salad and dessert.

Started with drinks.
The Avocado smoothie is a must for me, it was nice how it wasn't too sweet so you could taste the unami of the avocado.

My friend had the ice lime tea which tastes different to your usual tea.
It is hard to describe the taste but to me it tasted like Cadbury's Turkish delight with a hint of lipstick.

Started with the goi nom bo which is salad with banana blossom .
The salad is refreshing and complex in taste. It had all the tastes you could imagine from being sweet, sour, bitter and spicy.
Banana blossom is also good for your health too which you can google for more info!

Next was the bun rieu, the broth was great with a strong crab taste taste and the herbs were well balanced.
The noodles were a bit like rice vermicelli and soaked the broth well.
If you have been to Sisombath , the noodles are quite similar to the noodles served there.

Next was the bahn mi.
The baguette was so good because it was light and crispy and the filling was simple but delicious.
It had pate, three different meat slices, cilantro and their specially made sauce which gave it that lovely sweet and spicy kick.
This baguette is definitely worth sinking your teeth into because it is imported from Vietnam to guarantee a good quality baguette..

Finished with the dessert which I was also anticipating.
On the bottom layer is pandan jelly, the middle layer is coconut granite topped with coconut icecream.
The star of the dessert was the coconut granite which is pure coconut water that you can taste so it was a brilliant way to end the meal.
